POCKET ROCKET... My XinTD arrived today.

Nice light Dale. I only had the good fortune to play with Suncoasters light similar to yours for a couple of months (lucky bugger I was) and I agree with your sentiments. Suncoasters was pulling 2.8 amps on a Laptop battery. I modded a C8 from a Q5 to a XM-L running 3 amps. I spent a long time getting the reflector right. The XinTD with a larger hot spot was visibly brighter at 120 meters. This is a well tuned light.

for the sun to go down…… Can’t wait to see it how it does.

so, do you get the xintd mystery now? :bigsmile:

I was a bit surprised. Didnt expect it to be so bright for such a small light.

Would version 4 be better?

Not certain if the V4 has U3 emitters yet…

That hotspot seems pretty big albeit beautiful, how far away is that wall? Is camera zoomed in?

I have the v4 on order. Should be in any day now hopefully. Mine should be the XM-L2 T6 version which is about the same as the U3 I think. It should be my second best throwing C8 after the monster that Tom E built me. Looking forward to it.

Bout 50 feet… No zoom…

The only difference between the V3 & V4 is emitters & lumens. The V4 has like 70 more lumens than the V3.

i can almost guarantee the c8 xml2 from lightmalls will out throw that and be just as bright or brighter.
i just recieved that the other day and i just cant get over how powerful that thing is in stock form.

I find it so hard to fight this…how much was it?

What a ridiculous title. 155mm is not really a pocket rocket. Do you carry a man purse or something?

Be interesting to research…. Oh & thanx for pissing on my campfire. :smiley:

Has the world been invaded by trolls? Actually, I carry it in the pocket of my Carhartt jacket.

$32 with shipping…

Your post got me to thinking. I researched the light malls C8 you mentioned. The closest thing I have to it is the Rong Li XML T6… It’s rated at 1600 lumens. It is indeed brighter with a tighter hotspot. They are very similar in appearance. Apart from the Li having a deeper head. Have to shine them around tonight to see.

Just because you carry something huge in your Carhartt jacket, it does not mean it becomes a world standard. If someone came up and said they carried a 350mm pocket rocket, would that become the new definition for a ‘pocket rocket’?

Look at the size of that head on the XinTD. It’s supposed to be pocketable? Why not carry a lamp post instead?

I pocket a 3 x xm-l u2 3 x 18650 light during the week, it fits straight in the screwdrver pocket. A c8 is dainty by comparison and perfectly pocketable, shut your damm whining! :stuck_out_tongue:
